    I hope that holds true, given we just had the twin cities marathon canceled for excessive heat in October, in MN where we still mention the Halloween blizzard of 94 in hushed tones, that scale might need recalibration.

      Yeah it’s definitely drifted a bit since Fahrenheit was first conceived what with climate change and all. That doesn’t mean the scale is wrong, it means the moderate climates are slowly moving elsewhere.

        Maybe we just discovered an instant solution to global warming, just readjust the temp scale. Move everything up by a couple dozen degrees and suddenly we’re in a new ice age. 🤔
